Arduino Uno Temperature and Humidity

Arduino Uno Temperature and Humidity

The DHT11 is a digital temperature and humidity sensor. It uses a capacitive humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure the surrounding air and sends out a digital signal on the data pin (no analog input pins needed). Its simple to use, and the update timing of the sensor is about 2 seconds. Thermistor temperature … Read more

Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Servo

Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Servo

The servomotor, RC (Hobby) Servo is a type of gear motor that can only rotate 180 degrees. It is controlled by sending electrical pulses from our UNO R3 board. These pulses tell the servo what position it should move to. We will be wiring the servo to our Arduino UNO R3 controller on our super … Read more

Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Tilt Ball Switch

Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Tilt Ball Switch

We will now look at the tilt ball switch on our Arduino Uno super starter kit. Tilt sensors (tilt ball switch) allow you to detect orientation or inclination. They are small, inexpensive, low-power, and easy to use. Their simplicity makes them popular for toys, gadgets, and appliances. Tilt ball switches are sometimes referred to as … Read more

Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Software – Arduino IDE

arduino uno software

We will now install software to program our arduino uno. This arduino uno software is a free download and will operate on several operating systems. The IDE (Integrated Development Environment) software uses a streamlined version of C++ to write and upload code to the boards. This software is open-sourced and available free of charge. It … Read more

Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Hardware

Arduino consists of a family of single programmable circuit boards and the IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that uses a streamlined version of C++ to write and upload code to the boards. Many pre-configured circuit boards, called “shields”, are available to expand the functionality of the Arduino controller. These shields can provide Ethernet, WiFi, GPS, LCD … Read more
